ABITIBI Fundraising Recycling Program
The bin is located by the Scott Township Maintenance Building. This is located at Lindsay & Greentree Roads, below the Scott Park.
This is a great way to help the library and the environment!
1. It is a fundraiser for the library.
2. You can recycle your papers here.
Some rules: If it tears, you can recycle it.
No phone books. The paper has been recycled too much!
No cardboard, including cereal boxes, corrugated, etc.

Commemorative Plate Program
Non-profits are always in need of financial donations!
One way to donate to Scott Library is to purchase a commemorative plate.
If this is something of interest to you fill out the form and mail or drop it off at the library.
Special Notes:
1. We now have cards you may use to let someone know you purchased a plate in their honor, or in the memory of someone special. Ask at the desk for a special card when you turn in your complete form.
2. In May 2007 we began a Commemorative Plate book to list all donations made through this program. Ask for the "plaid book with the Scottie dog on the front" to see this special list.
Donations
If you would like to make a donation to the library money is always a great idea!
But, if you want to do something more tangible, check out the door to your right when you come into the library. Scottie is digging for bones and needs all the help he can get! A list is provided in the basket which you can take with you.
Gifts
One special way to help your local public library is to include the library in your estate plans.
